North Vancouver-based Novarc Technologies has unveiled NovAI, an artificial intelligence platform for robotic and mechanized welding. Announced at Automate 2025 in Detroit, the system brings real-time vision and adaptation to welding tasks, improving quality while reducing waste.
NovAI includes modules such as Capture, Control, Autonomy, and the NovSync Dashboard, combining machine vision, human expertise, and AI-driven autonomy. CEO Soroush Karimzade says the platform builds on 20 years of research and the success of its Spool Welding Robot. Novarc recently closed a $50 million Series B round led by Export Development Canada and backed by Seaspan, InBC, and Graham Partners.
